Don't allow your children to be
tickled, if to ever so small degree,
under the chin, round the neck, any
where. 1t is ruinous to chiid's
nerves, and thoughtless young moth
ers, who tickle their babies to bring out
the "lovely smile" do an immense
amount of irreparable mischief, and
are storing up for their children numer-
Gus future ills.-Mrs. E. c. He,Uett, in

The thrilling Wall street operator,
s. V. White, has posted in his private
Office this notice: Il am not deacon. +"
He has just extended his field of spec,
ulation beyond the Stock Exchange,
by becoming member of the Cotton
Exchange, and the announcements OF
his election mentioned him, as usual,
as deacon White" He explains that,
although treasurer of Plymouth Con.
gregation, he is no member of the
church, much less deacon. That ap-
pellation is q nickname, originally put
on him loosely by journalist, to be
accepted in good earnest by the public.
He now wishes to stop the misuse of o
religious title, he says.

In the French provinces The rule about
kissing is infexible, and any lady who
withheld her cheek from the salute of
any acquaintance or dependent, however
humble, whether man or woman, who
wished her la bonnie aimee, would not
only make an enemy, but be set down a.
having I'm mauvais eGu-. In Paris people
are less sentimental, and a pecuniary re-
turn for the expression of good wishes
adequately meets the requirements of the
case, without the kiss being exacted.

FAUST AND MEPHISTOPH.
ELES.
by w. ii. S. ATKINSON.

A large and fashionable crowd thronged
Steinway Hall, New York. Usually New
York audience, selected from the upper
ten thousand" is not very demonstrative-
especially over new aspirant for its appre-
citation and fayors. But on the occasion Of
the debut of Miss Alta Alwyn as q public
singer, New York society forgot itself. The
new song bird became q favorite before
she had finished her first number diff
cult "show-piece" in Italian-and when,
for an encore, she gave, with pathos and
richness of tone, the tender and familiar
"Swanee River" the great audience rose
en- mdsse and cheered to the echo, while
costly bouquets fell in profusion at the
feet of the young artist. And Alta Alwyn
was happy, supremely happy. Such a
night, such a success as this, Lad been her
one cherished dream during four long
years of incessant toll and study.
Alta Alwyn was not in love-had never
been in love, and was total stranger to
Dan Cupid and his tricks. The ruling
passion of her young life had been ambi-
ton: desire TO excel in her chosen pro-
fession.
Now that the first step on the road to
fame had been taken, now that she found,
at the very outset, oil the wealth and fash
ion of wealth and fashions metropolis at
her feet, she was happy.
Two other persons in that brilliant as
sembly were also elated at Alta Alwyns
success. One of these was her tutor and
manager, Signor Rivera; the other was Mr..
Richard Cameron, a wealthy young New
York banker. The cause for Signor Ri
vera's satisfaction is obvious; Dick
Cameron's unusually bright eye and flushed
cheek will require some explanation.
On the morning after the concert, Miss
AIwyn sat alone in her morning room. The
pretty apartment was filled with the rich
perfume from n thousand roses-the offer

Springfield. o., Telegram.
Dog stories, like anecdotes Of nnskes,
have been written and told until the pub.
lie have come TO the conclusion that it
would only be fair for them to have rest
on these aubiecs, but the following is an
actual fsct, though it certainly does come
under the head Of dog stories. A Tele.
gram reporter entered the tonsorial par
lors Of II. j.. Nochang, at No. 1926 Clinton
avenue, yesterday, aud was informed that
the well-hred bull dog running about the
place was vocalist. OF course he thought
the knight OF tho razor was cbsffiug, but
that gentleman quickly proved the truth
OF his s!stemen! by calling The apprentice
boy and instructing him TO play on G
small mouth harmonIca. The boy struck
up Home, Sweet Home" and tho dog,
prickirg up his ears put his front feet on
the seat OF chair and raising hin nose

in true professional style. OF course ha
did not observe particularly the piano and
fortisailno passages, but he carried the air
almost perfectly.
The youth next started in en- the "Fif-
teen Dollars, Inside Receptacle" cong
which the atreat urchins have been sing
ing for a long time, sHd the iGtelli-
gent canine not only carried the air Of the
piece, but when ii came TO the end Of the
chorus he laughed loud "hn ha" SO per-
iectly that person in this other room
would have supposed nhst the laugh
emanatsd from human being. The
serbs wes non-plussed at the wonderful
intelligence Of the animal and Mr.. No.
chang then explained that the dog would
distinguish Irish music from German.
This seemed incredible, but the boy start.
ed up Dutch waltz which the canine
seemed to enjoy and it Gang better
than before, but the musician sud-
denly changed to real old.fashioned
Irish jig and the dog quickly started fer
the yard on dead run.
The quadruped did several excellent
tricks and is without doubt the moet in.
telligent dog in this rection. The owner
has been offered considerable sums Tor his
petty dime museum managers, but 10
money could induce him 10 let tho dog go.
